by Ted Nomura World War II: 1946 goes where even its predecessor series, Luftwaffe: 1946, did not ? extending to the Pacific Theater and the Russian Front. In this alternate history of World War II, the ripples of change begin decades earlier, with German air ace Hermann Goring killed in 1917, and U.S. Army Captain Harry Truman in 1918. Secret German finds in Mongolia and Antarctica in 1937 and '38 allow Hitler to expand his plans for Earth. In 1940: a cease-fire with England. In 1941: Moscow falls. All the while, the Holocaust kills millions. But the worst turn for the allies comes in May of 1944, when a dress-rehearsal for D-Day ? Operation Tiger ? ends in disaster, and Hitler discovers through captured papers that the Allied plan for invasion is indeed Normandy! With D-Day prolonged into a war of attrition, the war extends to 1946. Now follow this altered conflict through the eyes of our enemies, with "Angels of the Luftwaffe" returning in this issue, and the advanced "Japanese Kamikaze: 1946" missions starting next issue under the title "Born to Die." FC, 20pg$2.50" Cover price $2.50.

by Ted Nomura BORN TO DIE?In April 1945, the Japanese 70,000-ton battleship Yamato, armed with the first experimental atomic bomb, became the ultimate kamikaze on its way to join the Battle of Okinawa. But Yamato was sunk en route by overwhelming American air power. With America's own atomic program delayed, the invasion of Japan commenced in late 1945 with terrible casualties, as predicted, on both sides. By 1946, in their desperation for defense, the Japanese throw everything into their arsenal, including suicide frogmen and schoolkids flying crude rocket kamikazes. FC, 20pg" Cover price $2.50.

by Ted Nomura In June 1941, Hitler launches his long-awaited invasion of the Soviet Union and the Luftwaffe destroys most of the Red Air Force. But the "Stalin Hawks" rise from the ashes like a phoenix, growing into a lethal weapon of the air, first against the Nazis, and later against their former allies. In these "Altered Wars," the German Army succeeds in reaching Moscow in 1941, and the Soviet forces fight an even more bitter war to gain it back. In the chaos, Stalin, already paranoid with conspiracy, unleashes his own dreaded program of a "Soviet Solution" to win the war! FC, 20pg" Cover price $2.50.

by Ted Nomura "Luftpanzer" ? It is April 1946, and the great battle of Operation Jupiter (from the original Luftwaffe: 1946 series) is occurring in South Atlantic near the Falkland Islands. Determined to prevent the Axis from blocking the Drake Passage, the Allies are forced to send the bulk of their fleet to defend it, but the attack is just a decoy. The Axis powers simultaneously conduct Operation Saturn, their biggest airborne campaign on Panama Canal, by attacking from both sides: the Japanese from the south, and the Germans, plus some Italian forces, from the north. The hapless defenders must fight until help arrives. But the Allied fleet, like the Axis forces, is badly mauled and reinforcements are slow in coming. Yet the Allies have one trump card in their sleeves: Colonel Condorcet and his Hunley commandos. Unless, of course, SS Obersturmbannfuhrer Mika Oberlicht and her special Luftpanzer fluggrenadiers can stop them... FC, 20pg" Cover price $2.50.

by Ted Nomura Back from the pages of Luftwaffe: 1946, Col. J.J. Condorcet's special Commando team once again uses their special submarine, the Hunley (named after the Civil War Confederate sub of the same name) to pursue another Nazi carrier, the Potsdam, shortly after concluding their Operation Saturn in 1946. Enroute, the team runs afoul of a special Type XXI U-boat towing a submerged V-2 rocket aimed at Washington D.C., and must divert to stop that. But then an emergency arises and J.J. must hurry off to meet his most dangerous ally, Comrade Birdboy, a.k.a. Yosef Soyuz, to prevent the Soviets from obtaining the Nazi's darkest secret, the Black Holocaust. Accompanying him are the men of the X-Corps, led by Lt. Stoner and Sgt. Morrow. Facing them are their counterparts, Sgt. Blitzer and the Sonderkommando Oberlicht (as in Mika Oberlicht, J.J.'s nemesis), created specially by Hitler to destroy the Hunley Commandos!"
